Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Just received this beast from Amazon today & couldn't wait to try it as my old one (Royal Orca) finally died after several years of faithful service & credit card checks were starting to pile up. My old Shredder was a table top model that would only shred a couple of checks at a time & I wanted something more "formidable" Well this critter fits the bill. Its intake is a full 9" so I can unfold a sheet of checks & make fast work of them. Its 7 gal basket means less trips to the garbage. Plenty of indicator lights to give it that "Gee-Whiz" look, & one feature that makes this shredder a must have for families with little children.....a safety lockout that cuts power to the shredder if little fingers are touching the intake area. A size gauge on the front is small but very handy feature so you don't overload the machine. Another handy feature is the pull out basket,makes emptying this thing a breeze. Any complaints? So far just one......the basket assembly seems flimsy, especially on carpet it seems somewhat "wobbly". Take the basket out & it seems it might collapse. The pluses far outweigh the cons so I highly recommend this item.
Pluses:
1. Shredding capabilities are all any home could need
2. A great shredder for a good price
3. safety lockout
4. Shreds credit cards & Cd's
5. Looks great.
6. Indicator lights to tell whats happening
minuses
1. Flimsy basket assemblyUpdate 7/20/07:
auto shutoff quit working. Major hassle to turn it on & off manually. after a couple of weeks this I e-mailed customer service @ Fellowes & explained the problem. I received an e-mail from a nice CS lady the next asking for clarification of the problem(bad sensor) she e-mailed back the next day that Fellowes was sending a new unit(at their expense) & to return the bad one in the same carton with a downloadable label(also at no expense to me). When I returned home the following week there was my new shredder on the porch. Scheduled a PU for Fed-Ex the next business day. All in all a positive experience. I wish more companies were like Fellowes.
BTW the flimsy baqsket is still going strong :o)
